As I mentioned in the Mystery Dungeon emotional thread, I just finished this game's main story. Time: 42:38:02. Yes, I'm slow. I often am, since I like to take in every bit of dialogue I can find and explore entire floors if possible (because of my greed). And I absolutely loved it! ^-^ Seeing the menu having only six squares for bosses and people's opinions on it, I expected it to be really short. But to me, it felt like the story is just about as long as its predecessors. The characters are the thing that really bring the game to life for me (oh, and the music of course). These are characters that actually matter, characters you don't want to leave in the end. Even NPC characters like Herdier and Swanna play a role based on their personalities. Also, Hydreigon is adorable. ^-^
